Different kinds of #75 nose planes?

David Miller from Iowa

>I have four #75 style bull nose rabbet planes - a Stanley, a Millers Falls, a Sargent, and a Kunz. All virtually identical except for finish and cutter stamps.

Is anyone aware of other brands that made this same plane? Always looking for a new reason to collect planes.

>Yes, when we were in London in 2002, at one of the markets there was a bronze 75, otherwise absolutely identical. I just cannot remember if it had a maker's mark on it or not. Even at the exchange rates then, the asking price was too high to even consider, I think it was around 50 pounds.

>I'm pretty sure Ohio Tool made one. I'm at work and can't check my Ohio catalogue, but I'll check later tonite. If they did, examples would be rare as hen's teeth.

Yep

>Ohio Tool made one, but in their numbering system it is an 075. 4 inches long and a 1 inch cutter. In 1910 it cost 55 cents. I'm guessing you'll pay somewhat more than that if you ever find one.

>Yes, here's another one from Germany. I'm not sure about the maker, though. There were many German firms, which made Stanley clones.
